# FAQ> Why is everything so slow?

Usually that has to do with how fast reddit is responding at the moment. Checkthe site, see if it's responding quicker when accessing it in your browser.Otherwise, we respect the "no more than one API call per two seconds" rule, soif you're trying to do a bunch of quick requests in succession you're going tobe spaced out to one call per second. If you're having a specific issue besidessomething covered by one of those two things, please let us know (or file aticket) and we'll check it out.
